Sorry to hear about your slip Espree. Don't get mad - dust yourself off and try again.

I was watching Matthew Perry on a youtube clip talking with Peter Hitchens about addiction. Perry says "I am in control of that first drink, after that all bets are off". Words to live by.

I had a productive weekend in terms of painting the kitchen walls. I am still working on it. I am finding the days long but am keeping busy. This is March break here so we don't have any play rehearsals - but I hope to have my lines memorized by the time we start again. I don't have a social life yet and am feeling lonely. I've been spending a lot of time here on SR just reading.

My blood pressure is down. Last night was 133/82 heart rate 65 bpm. This morning 120/75 heart rate 64 bpm. That's pretty good for 3 weeks, considering I was around 145 to 155 over 90-95. Anxiety has lessened and for that I am grateful.
